[0001] The present invention relates to a support goal creation device for care recipients or disabled persons, and a system using the same, and particularly to a support goal creation device for care recipients or disabled persons that can easily create support goals for care and disabled person support by using artificial intelligence, and a system using the same.

Background Art

[0002] The formulation of a care plan related to the long-term care insurance system requires coordination between the business operator providing the care service and the user receiving the care service. And in the process of creating the care plan (care plan) of the long-term care insurance system, an assessment is carried out. The investigator conducts an interview survey on the person to be investigated or the caregiver, and based on the survey results, detects the problem area and determines the necessary care services.

[0003] It has also been proposed to use a computer system in creating such a care plan. For example, in Patent Document 1 (Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2000-339378), a care plan creation method that is easy for users to handle and manage information processing and can easily create a care plan is proposed. In this care plan creation method, a program classification stage for classifying the care plan so that a plurality of sub-programs are subordinate to one identifiable and unique main program, assigning a main theme and a user as items of the main program, and assigning specific care items and care records as items of the sub-program, and writing and registering data corresponding to the main theme, the user, the specific care items, and the care records in a dedicated master table respectively, and creating a care plan by selectively referring to the dedicated master table, combining the data, and creating the main program and the sub-program are proposed.

[0004] In Patent Document 2 (Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2002-297769), regarding an assessment support server that supports the assessment conducted in the process of creating a care plan for the long-term care insurance system, in order to facilitate the smooth progress of the survey and support objective judgment, in the questionnaire flow control process, according to a preset questionnaire flow, questions corresponding to the previous question and answer are selected, and in the survey screen process, a survey screen related to the question is output. The survey screen process further inputs the selection of an answer, and in the problem area detection process, a problem area is detected according to the question and answer. When the survey is completed, it is proposed to output an estimate screen for the service based on the problem area.

Problems to be Solved by the Invention

[0006] As described above, it has been proposed to use a computer system in the creation of a care plan even in the past. However, the technology proposed in Patent Document 1 solves the problem that it is difficult to tabulate because the user side performs information processing in various expressions, and it does not create the care plan itself. Also, the technology proposed in Patent Document 2 is to select the order of questions in the interview survey that the investigator conducts on the person to be surveyed or the caregiver in the assessment, and it does not create the care plan itself.

[0007] On the other hand, in order to create support goals for care and persons with disabilities, it is important to conduct hearings and understand the situation from the care recipients and persons with disabilities, and these have a large dependence on the knowledge and experience of the support goal planners.

Best Mode for Carrying Out the Invention

[0025] Hereinafter, with reference to the drawings, the support target creation device 10 for the care recipient or disabled person according to the present embodiment, and the support target creation system 50 using the same will be specifically described. In particular, the present embodiment includes an assessment information management device 20, and the support target creation device 10 for the care recipient or disabled person is configured to acquire assessment information from the assessment information management device 20. And the support target may be a support target for creating a care plan or a self-support plan.

[0026] FIG. 1 is an overall configuration diagram showing the support target creation system 50 for the care recipient or disabled person according to the present embodiment. The support target creation system 50 shown in this figure includes a user terminal 30 installed in a care facility or the like, an assessment information management device 20 that acquires assessment information from the user terminal 30, and a support target creation device 10 that acquires the assessment information processed and extracted by the assessment information management device 20 and extracts support targets.

[0027] The user terminal 30 transmits assessment information to the assessment information management device 20 by the operation of a caregiver or other employees of a care or support facility. The transmission of such assessment information can be done by uploading a pre-created assessment information file to the assessment information management device 20 connected via an information communication network such as the Internet, or by an input method from an application such as a web browser as shown in the user terminal screen 31 of FIG. 2. This assessment information can include basic information such as the address, name, date of birth, and disability support classification of the care recipient or disabled person, growth information regarding height and the age at which speech began in early childhood, medical examination information regarding the content of previous medical check-ups, and living environment information regarding the current physical condition and living environment. However, the assessment information can be appropriately changed according to the support content of the care recipient or disabled person without being limited to these. That is, it can be appropriately changed according to the content such as care support and self-reliance support.

[0028] The assessment information management device 20 appropriately processes the assessment information acquired from the user terminal 30, or extracts specific items included in the assessment information, and transmits this to the support goal creation device 10. At that time, the assessment information management device 20 can also hold the acquired assessment information and the transmitted assessment information in the storage device 29.

[0029] Then, based on the assessment information obtained from the assessment information management device 20, the support target creation device 10 finally creates support targets and support plans. In this embodiment, the support target creation device 10 is configured as an artificial intelligence device. That is, the support target creation device 10 utilizes deep learning, which has been attracting attention in the development of artificial intelligence, and uses a multi-layer structure algorithm "deep neural network" modeled after the human brain nerve circuit. It is constructed to execute a method in which an artificial intelligence (Artificial Intelligence) itself determines the setting and combination of feature amounts. In such a neural network, generally, artificial neurons in the input layer, intermediate layer, and output layer are connected in series, and the connection between artificial neurons is implemented by synaptic learning. As synaptic learning, the error backpropagation method (backpropagation) is generally used.

[0030] As shown in the block diagram shown in FIG. 3, the support target creation device 10 according to this embodiment collects data publicly available in a communication network such as the Internet, non-public data that requires on-site base or authentication, past assessment information, problem-solving information, support target information, support plan information, etc. as input data, and can use this as learning data 11. Then, by performing machine learning (especially deep learning) based on this learning data 11, an artificial intelligence device can be constructed. In this machine learning, as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, the learning data 11 is used as the input layer, and from the data of this input layer, the computer algorithm itself derives feature amounts. In the intermediate layer, a network structure showing the association between the feature amounts can be constructed, and finally, the output information serving as the output layer can be constructed. For the support target creation device 10 constructed as a learned model in this way, by inputting the assessment information 12, the support target 13 can be output as the processing result by the AI.

[0031] Note that the support target creation device 10 only needs to utilize artificial intelligence technology, and it may also be an artificial intelligence device constructed using an expert system. Such an expert system is a program composed of a set of rules for analyzing information about problems in a specific field, and it is composed of a fixed inference engine and a variable knowledge database. The inference engine performs inferences using the set of rules, and the process of its processing is relatively straightforward.

[0032] As described above, the support target creation device 10 is an artificial intelligence device constructed as a learned model by deep learning (i.e., deep learning), and is constructed so as to be able to output a support target 13 and further a support plan based on the acquired assessment information 12. The support target 13 output from the support target creation device 10 is transmitted to the assessment information management device 20. In the assessment information management device 20, a file in a table format or the like associating assessment items, problems to be solved, and support targets can be created and transmitted to the user terminal 30. As a result, at the user terminal 30, an optimal support target can be acquired by transmitting the assessment information 12.

[0033] FIG. 5 is a block diagram showing the processing of the caregiver or disabled person support goal creation system 50 in the first embodiment, and FIG. 6 is a sequence diagram in the support goal creation system 50. As described above, the support goal creation system 50 shown in this figure is composed of the user terminal 30, the assessment information management device 20, and the support goal creation device 10. In the support goal creation process, first, the assessment information is transmitted from the user terminal 30 to the assessment information management device 20. In the assessment information management device 20 that receives this, the acquired assessment information is processed or extracted and transmitted to the support goal creation device 10. The support goal creation device 10 extracts approximate problem to be solved based on the acquired assessment information and transmits this to the assessment information management device 20. This approximate problem to be solved can be transmitted to the user terminal 30 as necessary, and the problem to be solved can be specified based on the user's input. Then, the assessment information management device 20 transmits the specified problem to be solved to the support goal creation device 10. In the support goal creation device 10 that has acquired the specified problem to be solved, the support goal is specified by using the problem to be solved as input information and by means of an artificial intelligence program and a learned model. Then, the support goal specified by the support goal creation device 10 is transmitted to the assessment information management device 20, and the assessment information management device 20 transmits this to the user terminal 30.

[0034] Through the above processing, the user can specify the optimal problem to be solved by transmitting the assessment information, and further can obtain the support goal corresponding to the problem to be solved.

[0035] FIG. 6 is a sequence diagram of the care goal creation process in the support goal creation system 50 shown in FIG. 5. In this process, first, an answer 32b to the assessment item 32a is input from the user terminal 30 (S1). This input process can be performed from the assessment information input screen shown in FIG. 2. However, it can also be performed by uploading an assessment sheet created in an electronic file format. When the assessment information management device 20 acquires the answer to the assessment item (S2), it extracts assessment information composed of at least any one of the assessment item 32a, the answer 32b, and the keyword in which words indicating desires or requests such as "want to do", "want to do", "want to become", etc. are included, or a flag is set (S3). Then, the extracted assessment information is preferably transmitted to the user terminal 30 in a list format (S4).

[0036] When the user terminal 30 acquires the assessment information (particularly the problems to be solved) extracted by this assessment information management device 20 (S5), it displays the problems to be solved for which the support target is to be inquired in a selectable manner and allows the user to select them (S6). The problem to be solved for which the support target is inquired here is transmitted to the assessment information management device 20 as a support target inquiry request (S7), and the assessment information management device 20 receives it (S8). Then, the assessment information management device 20 transmits the problem to be solved for which the support target has been inquired to the support target creation device 10 (S9), and the support target creation device 10 receives it (S10). In the support target creation device 10, based on the acquired problem to be solved, a category (i.e., identification information) related to the problem to be solved is extracted (S11). Such extraction of the category can be performed based on the content, keywords, etc. included in the problem to be solved, and based on the category assigned to each corresponding theme. That is, based on the acquired assessment information (particularly the problem to be solved as an assessment answer, etc.), the category related to the problem to be solved is extracted. This extraction of the category does not necessarily have to be one, and two or more are also acceptable. In that case, the category can be accompanied by first relevance information (for example, the ratio of relevance) indicating the relevance to the problem to be solved. By extracting the category of the problem to be solved in this way, noise can be reduced when identifying the problem to be solved. Note that this extraction of the category of the problem to be solved can also be performed only by simple keywords (such as "health", "participation", etc.) without using the assessment information. Also, the extraction of the category may be performed in consideration of the relationship with other problems to be solved (for example, the problems identified from the assessment answers).

[0037] When the support goal creation device 10 extracts the category of the problem to be solved, it transmits this to the assessment information management device 20 (S12), and the assessment information management device 20 acquires this (S13). The assessment information management device 20 selects the acquired category of the problem to be solved (S14) and transmits these to the support goal creation device 10 (S15). At this time, the selection of the category can be specified based on the first related information associated with the category information. Note that the selection of the category can also be performed by Instruction the user terminal 30. That is, the category information acquired by the assessment information management device 20 is transmitted to the user terminal 30, and this can also be specified by the operation of the user terminal 30.

[0038] When the support goal creation device 10 acquires the category information (S16), the support goal creation device 10 extracts approximate problems to be solved from the acquired problems to be solved and their categories (S17) and transmits these to the assessment information management device 20 (S18). Such approximate problems to be solved may be one or two or more, and may also be accompanied by second related information regarding the degree of relevance.

[0039] When the assessment information management device 20 acquires the approximated problem to be solved from the support goal creation device 10 (S19), it specifies, based on the height of the second related information, the relationship with other problems to be solved, etc., the problem to be solved that approximates the acquired problem to be solved (S20), and transmits this to the support goal creation device 10 (S21). Note that the specification of the (other) problem to be solved approximated to the problem to be solved can also be specified, for example, by an operation of the user terminal 30. That is, the assessment information management device 20 transmits the acquired approximated problem to be solved to the user terminal 30, and the user terminal 30 acquires this, specifies the problem to be solved, and transmits this to the assessment information management device 20. Then, when the assessment information management device 20 acquires the problem to be solved transmitted from the user terminal 30, it can be configured to transmit this to the support goal creation device 10. At that time, the acquired problem to be solved can also be held in the storage device, and can also be associated with the support goal described later.

[0040] Then, when the support goal creation device 10 acquires the problem to be solved specified by the user terminal 30 (S22), it extracts the corresponding support goal (S23). This support goal can be obtained by using the learned data in the above-described artificial intelligence device (support goal creation device 10). Then, the support goal creation device 10 transmits the extracted support goal to the assessment information management device 20 (S24), and the assessment information management device 20 that has acquired this (S25), as necessary holds it in the storage device and transmits it to the user terminal 30 (S26). Then, the user terminal 30 can acquire the support goal (S27). Considering that the formulation of such a support goal is an important part that requires knowledge and experience when formulating a care plan, for the user, based on the provision of assessment information, the support goal can be acquired without difficulty, and even a person with little experience can Appropriate easily formulate a care plan without difficulty.

[0041] FIG. 7 is a sequence diagram in the support target creation system 50 according to the second embodiment, and FIGS. 8 and 9 are operation screens of the user terminal 30 in the support target creation system 50. In particular, the support target creation system 50 according to this embodiment is characterized by a procedure for selecting support targets based on problems to be solved.

[0042] In the support target creation system 50 according to this embodiment, the process for creating support targets for care recipients or disabled persons is started by transmitting assessment information from the user terminal 30 to the assessment information management device 20 (P1). This assessment information can be configured as answers to preset assessment items, and like the support target creation system 50 according to the first embodiment, it can be performed online or by uploading an assessment sheet in electronic file format.

[0043] When the assessment information management device 20 acquires the assessment information (answers to assessment items, etc.) transmitted from the user terminal 30 (P2), from the description content (i.e., text information) of the answer, it extracts answers that contain words indicating hopes or desires such as "want to ~", "want to do ~", "want to become ~", etc., or answers with flags set as problems to be solved (P3), and transmits the extracted problems to be solved to the user terminal 30 (P4).

[0044] When the user terminal 30 receives the extracted problems to be solved (P5), it displays the problems to be solved processed or extracted by the assessment information management device 20 in a list on the display device. FIG. 8(A) is the screen 32 of the user terminal 30 that displays the extracted problems to be solved 32a in a list. As shown in FIG. 8(A), not all problems to be solved corresponding to all assessment items are displayed, but only the assessment items determined as problems to be solved 32a in the assessment information management device 20 are configured to be displayed in a list.

[0045] On the user terminal 30, only the solution problems that particularly require the formulation of support goals among the displayed solution problems can be selected with a checkbox (P6). FIG. 8(B) shows the screen 33 of the user terminal 30 indicating a state of obtaining a support goal for the solution problem of "wanting to cook and have the family eat" at the cell position "C56" in particular from the extracted solution problems. By selecting the solution problem with the checkbox 33a and selecting the instruction of "inquiry possible", a request for inquiry of the support goal is transmitted to the assessment information management device 20 (P7).

[0046] The assessment information management device 20 that has obtained this transmits it to the support goal creation device 10, and the support goal creation device 10 accepts the request for inquiry of the support goal (P8) and transmits it to the support goal creation device 10 (P9). The reason for the assessment information management device 20 to obtain the request for inquiry of the support goal is to obtain access permission from the support goal creation device 10. Therefore, when the support goal creation device 10 does not impose access restrictions, the user terminal 30 can also directly access the support goal creation device 10. Note that the processing up to this point in FIG. 7 (P1 to P9) can also be replaced with the processing shown in FIG. 6, from the answer input processing (S1) for the assessment items to the processing (S9) of transmitting the solution problem for which a request for inquiry of the support goal has been made.

[0047] In the support target creation device 10, when a query request for the support target is acquired (P10), a problem to be solved that requests extraction of the support target is used as input information, and support target candidates are extracted using an artificial intelligence program and learned data (P11). These support target candidates do not necessarily have to be one, and may be two or more. Then, the extracted support target candidates are transmitted to the assessment information management device 20 (P12), and the assessment information management device 20 acquires them (P13). Then, the assessment information management device 20 transmits the acquired support target candidates to the user terminal 30 (P14), and the user terminal 30 acquires them (P15). FIG. 9(A) shows a screen 34 in which the support target candidate 34b is displayed on the screen of the user terminal 30. As shown in this FIG. 9(A), as support targets corresponding to the problem to be solved "want to cook and have the family eat", examples of candidates 34b of "create time to spend with the family", "perform favorite housework and increase what can be done", and "continue favorite housework" are displayed in a separate frame 34a. Note that these support target candidates can also be ranked and output as the optimal support targets according to the target care recipient or disabled person in the support target creation device 10 which is an artificial intelligence device.

[0048] The user of the user terminal 30 can select the optimal support target for the care recipient or disabled person from among these support target candidates (P16). Then, the selected support target 35b is held in a form corresponding to the problem to be solved, as shown in the user terminal screen 35 of FIG. 9(B). That is, the specified support target is transmitted to the assessment information management device 20 (P17), and the assessment information management device 20 acquires it (P18). Then, in the assessment information management device 20, the problem to be solved obtained by making a query request for the problem to be solved and / or support target extracted from the keyword or flag and the support target are associated with each other, and a care plan document in a file format such as a table format can be created (P19). This care plan document in electronic file format is transmitted to the user terminal 30 (P20), and the user terminal 30 can acquire this and create a care plan (P21).

[0049] Through the above processes, users such as care managers and facility staff can input answers to assessment items and transmit them directly or indirectly via the assessment information management device 20 to the support goal creation device 10, which is an artificial intelligence device, to create optimal support goals and, ultimately, a care plan. As a result, optimal support goals and care plans can be created regardless of the user's skills and experience.

[0050] FIG. 10 shows a learning data providing process for the support goal creation device 10 constructed as an artificial intelligence: (A) a learning data selection screen and (B) a learning data Display screen. As described above, the support goal creation device 10 is constructed as an artificial intelligence device using public or non-public learning data 11. Even after construction, it is desirable to sequentially add learning data 11 in order to further improve accuracy. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 10, for example, existing data such as problem-solving tasks, support goals, and care plans created so far are used and configured to be provided as learning data 11 to the support goal creation device 10. Specifically, as shown in the learning data file selection screen 36 in FIG. 10(A), a file 36a containing the learning data to be provided is selected, and as shown in the learning data display screen 37 in FIG. 10(B), problem-solving tasks 37a, support goals 37b, classification (category) 37c, video data creation date 37d, etc. included in the learning data are displayed in a list. Then, the data to be provided to the support goal creation device 10 is selected and transmitted to the support goal creation device 10 as learning data. As a result, the support goal creation device 10 can improve the extraction accuracy of problem-solving tasks and support goals based on assessment information and provide optimal problem-solving tasks and support goals to care recipients or disabled persons. In particular, the provision of such learning data can be realized by the assessment information management device 20 and / or the support goal creation device 10 by storing past creation or extraction results in a storage device.

[0053] The CPU 501 controls the operations of the components of the computer 500, and under the control of the OS, controls the acquisition and transmission of the above-described various information, or the execution of the AI program, etc., and controls its operation. The memory 502 usually consists of a ROM (Read Only Memory), which is a non-volatile memory, and a RAM (Random Access Memory), which is a volatile memory. Programs executed when the computer 500 is started are stored in the ROM. In the RAM, application programs executed by the CPU 501 to execute the processing of each device, database programs, and data used during the execution of these programs (for example, data read from a database or a file system and scripts) are temporarily stored.

[0054] The audio output device 503 is a device that outputs audio, such as a speaker, and the communication interface 504 is an interface for connecting to a network 520 for exchanging information with various devices. The display controller 505 is a dedicated controller for actually processing the drawing commands issued by the CPU 501. The drawing data processed by the display controller 505 is once written into the graphic memory and then output to the display 506 as a display unit.

[0055] The input device interface 507 receives signals input from input / output devices such as the keyboard 508, the mouse 509, or a touch pad, and provides a predetermined command to the CPU 501 according to the signal pattern. The keyboard 508 and the mouse 509 are necessary when performing operations such as program execution and setting.

[0056] The external storage device 510 is also included in the scope of the storage means in this specification. The above-mentioned programs and data are recorded in the external storage device 510, and are loaded into the RAM of the memory 502 from there as needed during execution. The external recording medium drive device 511 is a device that accesses the recording surface of a portable external recording medium 530 such as a CD (Compact Disc), an MO (Magnet-Optical Disc), or a DVD (Digital Versatile Disc), and reads the data recorded thereon.

[0057] However, the support target creation device 10 according to the present embodiment can have an arbitrary configuration as long as it can function as an artificial intelligence device.
